A look in both the Old and New Testament of how God the Father’s witnesses Himself upon this Earth. Both by the affirmation, sanctification, and ordination through the Lord Jesus Christ. That ultimately in the end He will have His glorification. The Manifold Wisdom of God (In the Old Testament):

This gentleness of compassion, giving direction to his interest in men, attached to all Jesus’ deeds. His advent into the world had been in response to the world’s need for a Savior, and he never forgot his prime purpose. His chief duty was to deliver the evangel of his own sacrificial death until his cross should be prepared, but such a ministry correlated so many forces that Jesus could not neglect to enunciate the principles that govern social, civic and theologic duties. The pulsating life around him stirred him to compassion and service. His compassionate interest in the poor oppressed classes was in great contrast to the course of his contemporaries. The kingdom of God should become love, joy, righteousness and peace because of the personal sovereignty of the Messiah, whose life of earthly service and whose institution of the kingdom were characteristically gentle and lovable.

Romans 6:11-12, Rev 4:4  Everyone’s cross (path to the glory of God) in life is different as well as the calling to each person’s purpose. This was proved when Christ spoke to Peter after his resurrection. Stating to the disciple, “This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.” John 21:19
